Editorial Policy

At The Boston Shaker, I’m all about keeping things simple, fun, and helpful. Whether you’re a total beginner or someone who’s been mixing for years, I want to make sure you’ve got everything you need to craft great drinks without overcomplicating things. Cocktails are meant to be enjoyed, and so should the process of making them.

My Approach

Like I mentioned on the About Us page, I believe cocktails shouldn’t be intimidating. That’s why I stick to straightforward language, real-world advice, and recipes that anyone can follow. I’m not here to impress you with fancy terms or obscure ingredients—just solid tips and techniques that work in real life, whether you’re at home or behind a bar.

What You Can Expect

When you come to The Boston Shaker, you can expect real, honest content. Every recipe, guide, and tip I share is something I’ve personally tried, tested, and believe in. I don’t push products or ideas I wouldn’t use myself. If I’m recommending a spirit, tool, or method, it’s because it works and makes sense for you. Simple as that.

I also focus on clarity. Each recipe includes step-by-step instructions, and I make sure to explain any techniques that might be new to you. Whether you’re shaking up a Negroni or something more creative, I’ve got your back.

Honesty and Transparency

I’m here to give you straight advice, no fluff. If there’s ever sponsored content, I’ll be upfront about it. But I only collaborate with brands and products I actually use and trust. You won’t find anything here that doesn’t align with what The Boston Shaker is all about—quality, simplicity, and great cocktails.

Community First

This site is about building a community of people who love good drinks. If you’ve got questions, suggestions, or even your own cocktail ideas, I’d love to hear from you. My goal is to keep this space open and helpful for everyone who’s looking to step up their drink-making game.
